72_72291The night that belongs to the Oscars is over, and the glory and waves of 1995 are officially over, but life cannot simply be divided into last year and this year, although the new year is new, but every present is a continuation of the past, and every present is also the foundation of the future. Each "now" is unique and intricate.

Neil looked at Pedro's back as he resolutely left, stood up, and rushed to the door of the hall, he wanted to catch up, but he was still worried about Pedro's situation. Not only was he worried about whether Pedro would be able to rely on his own strength to really enter the drug rehabilitation center, but he still hesitated to give up halfway, or he was poisoned again. Addiction is controlled zhì, "one last suck before going in" without supervision...... Still worried that Pedro didn't come by car, did he rely on his feet to go to the drug rehab center?

But after all, he couldn't keep up, and he was finally trapped in place. Because Neil knew that Henry was right, Pedro needed to rely on his own determination and perseverance to enter the ring. In the drug center, and as Pedro's friends, all they can offer is moral support.

Neil looked back at his teammates, and Alfonso also stood up at this time, looking in the direction of Pedro's departure with a worried face, but after all, he still didn't take a step, just stood at the table, his face obscure.

Unprecedentedly, Neil also felt the confusion in Hugo's heart, not only a bottleneck, but also a constraint, firmly binding the band's unbridled wings. Where they go from here, no one knows the answer.

In the kitchen, the sound of the Samora omelette is still noisy, the thin sea breeze mixed with the salty smell is blowing in the face, and the surroundings of the villa are still quiet, as if time has always stood still at a certain moment, and it has never changed. It's just that every one of them knows that everything has changed.

When the morning came again, the topic of the Oscars was noisy, and then ABC TV officially announced that the average audience of this year's Oscars was as high as 46 million, which is also the best result in the history of the Oscars after last year, and the moment when Hugo won the Oscar set a record high. Originally, people thought that this would be a "boring" awards ceremony, but it turned out to be much more than everyone expected.

It's ironic that just a few hours ago, Hugo was standing on the stage of Dorothy Chandler Hall to receive one of the most important trophies of his career so far, becoming the first actor in the history of cinema to win both the Raspberry and the Oscar; But now, everything has started to go off the rails.

Hugo slept in a daze, and when he woke up, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon, and the whole villa was quiet, and no sound could be heard, and he came downstairs barefoot, and Hugo found that everyone except Samora had left. Samora, who was reading all the newspapers for the day, immediately put the newspapers aside and stood up, "Are you hungry?" ”

This is almost a fixed line for Samora, and Hugo tugged at the corners of his sore mouth, "I'm really hungry." ”

Samora immediately stepped towards the kitchen, "Wait, I'll prepare afternoon tea for you." Hugo found a seat at the table, and Samora thought for a moment and explained, "There is a meeting at Warner Bros., and you were supposed to be invited over, but seeing that you are so tired, Rick and Joseph rushed over...... Alfonso returned to the city, and Alfonso said that he would stay in Los Angeles recently and would not leave for a while; Neil said he needed to take a break and drove out along the coastline; Pepe said that he was going to a drug rehabilitation center, and he left first, and he didn't receive a call from him for the time being; And Fujin...... He's right next to the golf course. ”

Hugo's attention was not on Samora at all, he was not interested in the dynamics of his friends, but when he heard the part of Fokine, he couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth, but Hugo didn't ask anything, his eyes turned to the sofa, "What were you looking at just now?" ”

"Oh, today's major media newspapers are reporting on yesterday's Oscars, are you interested?" Samora didn't say much, and he and Hugo were already very familiar with each other, so Samora knew very well that what Hugo needed now was not comfort or enlightenment, maybe just a moment of peace.

Regularly reading major newspapers and magazines and receiving the latest information in the entertainment industry is a must for agents and managers, and both Rick and Joseph are persevering in this work. But now Samora has also begun to share some of the tasks, and after receiving the information, it will be fed back to Joseph, after all, different perspectives may find different information.

Hugo pouted, "Forget it, I guess there's nothing new." ”

Samora smiled and nodded, "Almost, everyone thinks that Braveheart won a big victory, it's a step backwards for the Oscars, and then everyone says you deserve the award." ”

These contents are all expected, Samora has read nine mainstream newspapers today, and the opinions are basically the same, and everyone has almost given up the headline position to Hugo, this is not just an Oscar-winning statuette, but also means that Hugo has really pushed himself to a unique superstar position, in terms of awards and box office, in the current Hollywood, maybe only Tom Hanks can barely stand on the same level as Hugo, and Tom has never been an "idol", The overall strength is still inferior to Hugo. Therefore, it is conceivable that Hugo has a strong momentum today.

Of course, many media have also noticed that Hugo has also completed the feat of taking the Golden Raspberry Award and the Oscar into his arms at the same time, which also seems even more incredible, adding a mythical color to Hugo's development curve in the past few years. At the beginning, everyone ridiculed, spurned, and despised the golden sour plum, but today it has become an anecdote about Hugo's great achievements, making the whole story even more incredible.

Life is always like this, good things can be bad, but bad things can also be good. It is always the parties themselves who really have the right to decide.

"Even Carl said that today's newspapers are too uninspiring, and they are satirizing the Oscars in clichés, and these uncrowned kings are also unenterprising." Samora teased with a smile, her tone very relaxed.

However, Samora's words made Hugo a little stunned, and he remembered that two years ago, the morning after he won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, almost all his friends had gathered in that apartment, giggling and arguing. But what about today?

Hugo retracted his gaze and put back his chaotic thoughts, "There shouldn't be any work these days, right?" Does Rick have anything to say? ”

"No, Rick said you can relax and leave the work to him and Joe." Samora had already neatly prepared a pasta and put it in front of Hugo, "By the way, Thomas Wieland sent you an invitation, which I just received at noon. ”

"Who?" Hugo had just woken up, and his brain was still a little heavy, and he didn't react for a while.

"Burberry." Samora explained simply, which made Hugo suddenly realize, and looked at Samora, who quickly went on to explain, "Burberry's Los Angeles branch has officially opened, and he invited you to attend as a special guest. ”

"The branch is only opening now?" Hugo raised his eyebrows slightly, "I thought it was already on the agenda." If Hugo's memory is not confused, he remembers that Thomas was planning this before he moved, and it has been more than half a year since then, has the Burberry branch only been unveiled until now?

"Burberry has been making a lot of noise about it, announcing last Christmas that it would be officially unveiled on April 2 this year, and over the past few months, their advertising has come in waves, and it's clear that there are more big ideas." Samora is no longer a simple fan now, although his touch on the pulse of Hollywood is not as professional as Rick and Joseph, but he can also smell a lot of unusual, "Actually, I think they care more about the Oscars than anyone else, and they want you to win awards in Burberry clothes, so that the publicity effect will be maximized." Of course, even if you don't win an award, the red carpet is enough for them to be in the limelight. So, they've been waiting until now for their Los Angeles branch to open. ”

"The plan is well planned, but who can really say for sure." Hugo chuckled and lowered his head to eat his pasta.

"It's a matter of vision." Samora propped his hands on the side of the dining table, watching Hugo eat deliciously, he actually began to swallow his saliva, thought about it, turned around and got busy again, planning to use the remaining ingredients to make a plate for himself, but his mouth did not stop, "You said, if Armani hadn't looked away at the beginning, maybe they are the ones who are in the scenery now, and at that time, only Burberry was willing to invest in you, and now is the time to collect the return." ”

Hugo shook his head, "Giorgio Armani is just as prosperous even without me, they don't need me." This is true, but for Armani, the rejection of their costumes, by Hugo, the most talked-about figure in Hollywood at the moment, is a huge loss of invisibility – as evidenced by the rise of Burberry, who has seized the Armani market.

Samora didn't argue with Hugo, he made himself a plate of pasta, and then sat down at the table, and Hugo was dumbfounded—it was three o'clock, and Samora hadn't eaten lunch. Samora had learned to ignore Hugo's astonished gaze and calmly began to enjoy, "Are you going to attend?" The unveiling of Burberry. ”

It was originally just a casual sentence, but Hugo fell silent. After last night, Hugo had planned to rest and adjust for a while, so all the exposure was unnecessary. But now that Burberry has come with an invitation, it is estimated that they have no way of predicting what happened last night.

After thinking about it carefully, Hugo still nodded, "Well, I'm going to go over and have a look." After all, they've always been nice to me, haven't they? ”。
